Okay so that's everything that doesn't work.
Is there another step forward?

 So it doesn't appear to be a good place for collaboration.

Pickwiki tends to be a place where people dump proven code that other 
eople can use. Much of my code I've posted doesn't NEED improvement, 
ecause it had been in production for a while before being posted. The 
ugs and stuff had been ironed out.

ell, if people post code asking for help, then other people are eager

 How can we create a true collaborative project and Would Anyone Come ?
First thing to do - don't try to force a round peg into a square hole. 
ickwiki is a dumping ground for mature code. The u2 list and cdp are 
sed as a help forum. Neither is suited for or the right place for a 
ollaborative code project.
